  • MacOS serial terminal program for SC131

    From Manuel Maseda@21:1/5 to All on Thu Oct 20 14:29:03 2022
    I currently use Teraterm on Windows with my SC131. Does anyone know of a similar serial terminal program for MacOS?

    MacWise is a full-boat, but needs to be purchased. Worth it, imho. Another way is to use the Linux ‘screen’ utility. Google on that and you’ll find info about how to set it up as a terminal serial port connection. I’ve used both.

    There's also minicom under MacPorts.

    With the installation of XQuartz you also get xterm, which emulates VT-52, VT-100 and Tektronix 4014.

    "Serial" a commercial package is good, and cheaper than a rival Zoc - Zoc has a good trial period.

    Also to consider is c-kermit which has older legacy terminal emulations if cp/m apps cant do vt100/xterm

    I use Tera-Term on windows, but occasionally Zoc or c-kermit
    I use minicom on linux
    When I had a Mac I used Serial.
